May, 10, 2009. Kentucky Manor, 5211 Kentucky Avenue, Nashville, Davidson

I found this moth, identified by Ken Childs as a Southern Pink Moth,
Pyrausta inornata, on May 9 and was able to photograph it on May 10. I was
puzzled that it was not listed in BAMONA and Ken says a lot of the moths are
not. Would be interested in other observations of this moth. It is so small.
Looks like a little pink flake in the 'wind.'
